The Realms

Terres is the world that Age Past takes place in. It is made
up of different spheres. A sphere is an area of land or
continent separated by water, mountains, or crevasses. Each
sphere is attached to its neighbor, but travel between the two
is impossible or extremely difficult. Hence, natural life in each
sphere as grown and developed differently over the many
thousands of years.

Time and gravity on Terres is constant unless altered by a
magic spell or Gods' intervention. Characters will become
hungry and need to sleep, and they will age at a standard rate.
Different realms have different physical rules and will act
differently from how Terres works. Realms are areas that lay
on top of or coincident with each other. Travel between realms
is extremely difficult and is only done by strong magic. In
some realms characters will not grow hungry or age, while
others will speed up time for the travelers or slow it down in
relation to Terres. Not surprisingly, the races and cultures can
live exclusively in these realms will be very strange to those
who live outside.
